View additional information on a TreeDraw entry

Post by layton cule » Thu Apr 06, 2006 12:03 pm

I find that I have so much additional information which I wish to record about some ancestors that it is impractical to to put it all on the chart. It would be useful to have this information viewable by clicking/selecting the relevent entry. Photographs, scans of old documents, whatever, could be made available perhaps in a new window. What do you think ?

Does that mean that you would want to preview "extra" info for each person as they were imported? I think that would be a bit unwieldy but we are open to comments.

referencing additional information in a a TreeDraw item

Post by layton cule » Sat Apr 15, 2006 2:21 pm

I do not claim to be a designer but I would find it useful to be able to add
a small icon next to an item which when selected will bring up a list of relevant files (perhaps in tha same folder) any of which can be opened in a new window.
A copying facility to include the additional files.
Printing the additional files is probably impractical.
